Question what are display settings in sections, category, sub-categories

Hello everyone,
can any one tell me, what are the display settings in categories which we create in category manager?
if i am not wrong these settings used to help us for displaying categories or only sections in index page. but when i change them, nothing happens? i just wanted to show only sections in the index page coz i have a lot of categories inside sections? Help
best regards

I was wondering the same thing. My tests show they do nothing at all. There is no official documentation on what they are supposed to do (nor is anything helpful returned by Google) so I cannot tell if this should be reported as a bug or whether I've missed some vital information.

Hello,

I think, I have the same issue.

I'd like to hide the sub categories all the time.

So I set: Display Sub-Categories > Never in category index

But nothing happens. The sub categories are still shown.

Thanks for Kunena

Joomla: 3.5.1
Kunena: 4.0.10

I'm using Crypsis.

My settings are the second example. But the sub categories are shown.

Sorry, that's why I disabled the sub-categories in the meantime via CSS:

#kunena ul.inline li {display: none;}

This could be a solution, too. If there is no way to make a configuration setting.

Right now I enabled the sub-categories again. Please go to:



Maybe the sub-categories are shown because they are sub-sub-categories (4th level)?

Thanks
